So what does this mean for the rights of Australian citizens? In this fully revised fourth edition of A Charter of Rights for Australia,...

Yet, as this essential book shows, international law has a growing significance for trade, human rights, crime, terrorism and climate change. This is a highly readable, timely and important book that shows that while international law can seem remote, there is...
